Od komizmu nowoczesnego do ponowoczesnego
From modern to postmodern comicality

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the book by Tomasz Mizerkiewicz devoted to the phenomenon of humour in the Polish literature of the 20th and 21st centuries. Evaluating highly historical-literary merits of the work, the author draws attention to the need of a more precise defining the relation between humour and satire, the comic quality and the grotesque. She also points to Mizerkiewicz marginalizing the satire resulting from understanding it in an exceedingly narrow sense.
